Starting at Castle Vale Pool Car park we ride a short distance to pedestrian lights to cross main road, from there we ride along footpath to the Clock Garage, again using the pedestrian light to cross main road to Bradford Road where we ride down to the cycle path that takes us to Chelmsley wood and then to Sheldon Country Park. Its mainly off road and flat, beautiful ride through Babbs Mill, traffic free with just a couple of roads to cross along way.
Plenty off opportunities to stop for pictures in the park by the lake, Airport viewing point you can see the airplanes landing and taking off. then we carry on to the Farm for refreshments before heading back a different way to Castle Vale.
